Overview

The Rossi M4122B is a single-shot, break-open shotgun originally procured for police departments and government agencies. These trade-in units have been cycled through service inventories and are now available to the civilian market. The break-open design provides a straightforward manual of arms: open the action, insert a single .410 shell, close, and fire. This simplicity reduces potential failure points compared to semi-automatic or pump-action platforms. The .410 bore chambering makes this shotgun suitable for training, pest control, and recreational plinking. Each firearm is inspected for functional integrity before listing, though cosmetic condition varies. This is a utilitarian tool built for purpose, not presentation.

Features & Specs

• Action: Break-open (single shot) with manual extractor; chrome-lined chamber and bore for corrosion resistance and extended service life.
• Barrel: 18.5-inch barrel length with fixed cylinder choke; bead front sight for rapid target acquisition at typical engagement distances.
• Stock: Synthetic black stock and forend with checkered grip panels; sling swivel studs included for hands-free carry.

Additional specifications include an overall length of approximately 34 inches and an unloaded weight of roughly 5.5 pounds, making this shotgun compact and maneuverable in tight spaces. The trigger pull is factory-standard for Rossi break-open models, typically measuring between 5 and 7 pounds. The manual safety is located at the top tang, providing visual and tactile confirmation of the firearm’s status. Because these are police trade-ins, mechanical condition is verified, but external finish wear, minor stock scuffs, and holster marks are common.

Who It’s For

This Rossi M4122B 410 Bore Police Trade-In Break Open Shotgun is ideal for budget-conscious shooters who prioritize function over appearance.

Experienced shooters may find it useful as a truck gun, camp sidearm, or snake deterrent tool where compact storage and immediate deployment matter. Instructors and range officers sometimes use single-shot break- open shotguns for teaching fundamentals, as the action enforces deliberate loading and firing discipline. This is not a tactical competition gun or a high-volume range toy; it is a service-grade tool with a specific role.
